All you would need to do is to remove the bottom plate by screws, clips or levers and that will get @ the belt(s) – some Hoover WindTunnels have one and the self propelled models have 2 – you can cut off the belts or slide them off and 1st you need to hook the larger belt onto the brushroll & if you have 2 belts hoof both onto the brushroll pulley and then use a belt puller or a screwdriver with a hook on the end and pull or stretch the belt(s) onto the motor pulley and then track the belts in a straight line and replace the bottom plate and then start up your vacuum. The recommended belt change for a vacuum is every 4 to 6 months for the best cleaning. So if you need further assistance, please feel free to contact your local vacuum cleaner dealer in your area or in the yellow pages, or contact the factory phone number or website to further assist you with your questions. \015\012http://www.hoover.com Telephone Contact our Customer Service Department at 1.330.499.9499 Monday through Friday 8 a.m. - 7 p.m. EST \015\012Thanks, Don the Vac Man Go Ahead.

I have 2 Hoover Wind Tunnel-self propelled bagged vacuums-U6433-900 model.The roller bar does not agitate, the self propelled feature does not work and, in general, the vacuum is not performing well.

Is there any way to repair or replace the belt GUIDE on the inside of the belt compartment of a '97 Hoover Wind Tunnel (not self-propelled)? It became twisted when a belt broke and now the belt rubs against it and sounds really weird, and I'm sure new belts will continue to break.. This guide is a long piece of molded material (part of the compartent wall) to keep the belt from coming off the pulley. It also had a sort of metal clip on it. It was loose and I took it off because of the way the pa

Hoover Wind Tunnel 7500 Brush not Turning. I have replaced the Brush and the belt. The problem does not seem to be either to me. I believe might be a missing part. The place were the belt hooks on is a metal pole which never seems to grip the belt well. In fact it seems loose most of the time and slips on the brush, causing the belt to eventually burn up. Could there be a missing plastic or rubber piece meant to hold the belt taught on the metal pole?

I have a hoover wind tunnel model# u6476-900 and I'm having trouble replacing the belt. The extra belt that came with it was belt # 38528-035 and it's smaller then the old one and I'm having a hard time putting it on. Is this the right size belt?

Yes it is the right belt. the easiest way to get that belt on is to put it on the motor shaft first, stretch and start at the top of the self propelled pulley and rotate til the belt tracks on. you will need to keep pressure on the belt while you rot ...

My Hoover Wind Tunnel Bagless Pro Pet is making a very loud thudding noise when the belt rotates, belt seems to be intact and in place, what am I missing? Vacuum is less than 6 months old, belt is not worn and motor seems to be fine.

My hoover Wind Tunnel vacuum cleaner's motor spindle keeps overheating. Because of the high temperature, it keeps burning through belts (the big, wide ones). I have taken it in to the vacuum repair shop about three times now, and the problem has never been fixed. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this or should I just buy a new vacuum?

Have Hoover Wind Tunnel Sel Propelled vacuum. Had to put on new drive belt. Turn on unit and drive belt slides off the drive spindle.

Look for excessive wear on the unit around the pulleys and their brackets that hold them in place. It sounds like something is just worn out and the belt is either slipping because it is not tight enough or because something is not aligned straight. ...

I forgot to replace the vacuum cleaning bag in my Hoover Wind Tunnel Supreme Mach 3.3! It overheated and turned off. I spent all afternoon cleaning the dirt out of the inside, filters, etc. It still overheats when used over 1 minute. Do I need to buy a new vacuum?

My machine (Hoover Wind Tunnel - bagless) is only 1 yr. old. The agitator brush doesn't turn all the time. I know it's not supposed to turn when in the upright position. However, it only seems to work when I have the setting on high. When I stop, but have not put the machine in the upright position, it stops again and then slowly starts moving. Could the V-belt be worn out already? In the owner's manual it states that this belt is not normally replaced. The exact same thing happened with my old

Brush won't turn. I do not see how to remove this to replace the brush, and besides it's only about a year old! Why is it already broken? There's no visible evidence on the brush that would make it stop, i.e. string, clogged, etc. Can you help?
